Stopped by Phoenix Landing to start a night out with friends! Overall pretty solid experience -- they had good drinks and an okay menu. My margarita was pretty tasty and my friend's mule was a hit as well. We also grabbed the hummus which we enjoyed. We will be back!

Visited Pheonix Landing on a Saturday evening around 6pm and our group of 5 found a booth in a quiet corner to sit together. I'm glad we found it when we did because it kept getting busier as the night went on and by 9pm it was very loud inside and standing room only!! We were waited on by two servers throughout the night and they were both friendly, they didn't really say much - they are there to do their jobs! Each beer was around $8-10, standard for Boston. We also had the Margherita ($20) and prosciutto pizzas ($22) and the bar nachos with chicken ($16+$4) to share. The food was nothing show stopping, but it was tasty (& especially so after a few pints. :) )

The food here is better than what you'd expect from a local sports bar. We've gotten the steak, chicken quesadilla, pizza Margherita, salad - and they've all been pretty good. This is the place for sports viewing- during major sports events all 10 screens will be tuned to the same game so you can watch from any part of the dining area. Service was a little slow on Friday night- they seem a little short-staffed given the number of diners.

Came to watch a game, as they have a TV on the outside patio. Got a couple of beers to drink while enjoying the game. Was pretty packed but luckily we found a spot. Didn't try any food this time but would come back to watch another game.

Great spot to grab a drink and dance the night away! This divey looking bar opens its floors up, and brings out the DJ for a fun night of dancing. It got very packed on a Friday night with mostly a young crowd. The drinks were okay, there are some TV's at the bar. I believe you can dine here since there were tables around, but not sure of the food menu. There was a cover to get in. I believe this is standard cover on the weekends. I was told before 10pm there is no cover.

Came here on a Wednesday evening for trivia and overall, my group and I were pretty disappointed by the experience which is sad to say. We probably won't be coming back either in the end. The event starts at 7pm every Wednesday, but I highly suggest going early to grab a table. Someone in our party was there starting at 6:20 and we were lucky to be by the stage, but that's where our luck kind of stops. The hosts did their best to speak over the crowd, but despite being asked to be louder and louder, the microphone system was faulty and the rest of the people in the room just kept getting louder to speak over them anyway. It made the experience impossible as we couldn't hear the hosts despite being near the stage so I can only imagine how bad it must've been for folks in the back. The questions themselves weren't bad and the format was interesting enough, it's just that the entire process was way too long ( we left early at around 9:30, implying that the entire trivia night probably takes closer to 2.5 - 3 hours ) and the rest of the people there really didn't seem to care that no one could hear the hosts. The food was also subpar - the nachos were pretty tasteless and one of my group mates had a mediocre burger with cold buns. It made sense for the food not to be great though as everyone arrives at once and the kitchen probably isn't prepared to handle a huge wave like that no matter how much they prep. In the end, definitely a lackluster experience. Kudos to the hosts and the staff working as they did their best to accommodate the huge crowd, it's just that overall, the various factors of the rest of the clientele and various circumstances led to an inadequate experience.

Great for live music and an actually affordable bourbon drink in Boston! 1 mile walking from Marriott Cambridge, worth it.

So I've been going to this place since it first opened my father Reggie was a bartender at the blue…read moreroom, and I believe the original owner was one of the chefs there that was working with him and we would go in there all the time and it's always been great and I've been away from the area for a long time and I've recently come back and my girlfriend was trying to plan a great dinner for me knowing my favorite thing is bread pudding This unbelievable banana bread bread pudding they have on their menu is phenomenal. I got it as an appetizer. It was so good then we got the steak tips that came with fries and a Caesar salad we also got crabcakes for dinner steak was cooked perfectly. Had a great taste fries were good. Good amount of salad. My girlfriend got the crabcakes. Also good and then we got the peach and blueberry crisp for dessert which was also phenomenal. I would definitely recommend this to anyone they had some other things on the menu that I definitely wanted to try. They had a barbecue shrimp appetizer and a swordfish dish as a special as well was really packed but we still got in and got seated right away. great ambience, even though it was loud and busy could still hear my girlfriend perfectly great place for a date night great place to go and get a meal by yourself or just get a drink at the bar all the staff was very attentive constantly refill in the water asking if we need anything offering great suggestions.

What a great place! Our family was looking for a place for dinner after moving our daughter into…read moreher new home. This neighborhood pub was in the area. It had a fun vibe, specials written on a large chalkboard and great food. We started with margaritas and a gimlet at the bar, delicious! Dinner we had the special tomato salad, wow this was amazing. It tasted like fresh summer on my plate. I had the jambalaya . My daughter had the buffalo fried chicken sandwich, she said it had a kick and was very good. I would go again if in the area.

Labor Day weekend in Boston for work, and my hosts brought me here after dinner at a German…read morerestaurant nearby. In my travels I see a lot of "corporate" pubs; this is not that. It's a local watering hole type place, with an easy vibe. A loquacious patron whose name I did not get told me the owner was sitting at the other end of the bar, and I believe it, because it felt like family inside, like a real Irish pub. There was an incredible band playing Irish music with no cover charge, and the drink prices were very good. Add in good bartenders and a dog-friendly patio outside, and you've got the best Irish Pub in Boston, IMHO. Glad to have found it; hope to return on next visit. Very fun night, and highly recommended. OMG I'm starting to almost like Boston.

I went to Sally O'Brien's on a Friday night to see the band Ghosts of Jupiter. I learned in advance…read morethat they do serve food there so I decided to have my pre-show meal there. I arrived at 7:30 and was seated right away (it wasn't that busy yet). I was seated at a high top and not sure if there was wait staff or if I just self serve at the bar. The bar was close to me (Sally's is relatively small) so I walked over to the bar, ordered a beer (Lamplighter IPA, very good) and asked for a menu. The bartender offered to come over and take my order but when I had decided what I wanted I saved him the trip and walked back over to the bar to order. I got the Sally's Burger: 8oz burger with cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato and onion. The bartender delivered the food very quickly and to order (medium rare). The burger was excellent and came with well seasoned French fries and a dill pickle spear. It was an excellent meal and reasonably priced. Not long after eating, the band started and the place was hopping! They have a unique stage set up where the backdrop is the windows to the street. It was entertaining to watch people on the sidewalk stop and listen for a minute. The sound quality is excellent. I looked ahead at their entertainment calendar and saw a lot of good shows. There is no doubt I will be returning to hear some great local music and enjoy an excellent meal and cold beer!
